[J [LR http://promo.net/pg/ Project Gutenberg] is taking care of the

the importance of having access to the classics.]
[J Classics of the computer age: arcade videogames of the 80's are
not free, but they [LR http://www.mame.dk/ circulate] as [L
http://www.salon.com/tech/feature/1999/11/30/lions/ "samizdat"]
and can be emulated with [LR http://x.mame.net/ MAME]; Zork I, a
text-only adventure that was my first contact with real English,
can be [ES games#frotz obtained for free legally and be run in
an emulator]. I don't know if there are any "standard" places
for getting Atari ROMs.]
[J I have some friends that are involved in teaching children of
poor communities how to read and write. They would like to have
access to more free dydactical material (here the freedoms to
change the material and redistribute it are fundamental) and
papers on Education, but most people involved with those things
are still offline...]
[J We need something like a Project Gutenberg for books for children
(no link yet). If you know authors of children's books please at
least try to convince them to use the [LR
http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/fdl.html FDL] for their next books.
The quality of the digital illustrations will be lower than that
of printed books (and maybe there would be digital versions with
outlined illustrations, so that each child could color her
computer-printed or photocopied version), so it will make sense to
have a paper edition in parallel with a free online release.]
[J Several books on Mathematics, Computer Science and Logic are now
available online for free; see [LR
http://www.cs.uu.nl/people/franka/ref Frank Atanassow's list] (and
for papers, [LR http://citeseer.nj.nec.com/cs/ citeseer] and [LR
http://hpsearch.uni-trier.de/ HPSearch]).]
[J Mathematics would be much easier if more books were available
online, or at least if there weren't so many restrictions on
photocopying them for personal use. In a perfect world they would
even be available as TeX source so that we could make annotations
in digital form and give our "annotated copies" to others.]
[J I have always had the feeling that the "usual" books about
programs and programming languages (at least from the mid-80's on)
were trying to kill the few neurones that I still had... well,
some people have written very lucid things about that: [LR

just survival, nothing more, and that love and peace of mind are
of secondary importance. Sort of saying that there is no problem

http://home.talkcity.com/JammerJct/contactimprov/jams.html list
of Contact Improv Jams all over the world]. The ones which I've
been to are [LR

this one in Rio] and [LR
http://home.talkcity.com/JammerJct/contactimprov/jams.html#C
this one in Montreal], and I can't recommend them enough...
there's no problem in dropping there and just watching, and the
organizers (and the jams!) are extremely friendly. If you are
curious but scared my suggestion is to phone the organizers,
even if you don't know very well what to ask, and let them
dissipate your fears.]

Essays and articles about CI]. They usually start in a boring
way but then get better, so on a first reading you should jump
straight to the middle.]

[J [BF Wanted:] the pictures above show mostly the moments in
which Contact Improv looks more acrobatic, or more like
stretching and relaxing... the moments that I find the most
fantastic are the ones in which people don't know what they are
doing, but they are "not knowing" [IT together]; these are
the moments that are much more like "Contact" and less like
"Improvisation". I want a pic of one of these moments!!!]

[J By the way, one of the things that I most hate in the world is
gender roles, and I found that CI is one of the situations where
people can drop their gender roles and all other cliches more
easily, and search for something more real. And it's a lot of fun
too, it's not like something that starts by humiliating people and
reducing them to dust. But I'll write more about that some other
day.]

[BR] If you treat everybody else as an enemy you get an ulcer.
[BR] The American ulcer is bleeding (in the form of the falling of the
twin towers), and it is no longer possible to just take a pill, find
something external to blame, and forget about the problem.
